Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
On December 14, 2016, MUFG Union Bank, N.A., a national banking association (the “Bank”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Registrant, entered into a Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”) with 400 California, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Purchaser”), which is owned by Takenaka Corporation of Osaka, Japan and Kennedy-Wilson Holdings, Inc., Beverly Hills, California, to sell to the Purchaser the Bank’s properties located at 400 and 430 California Street, San Francisco, California (the “Properties”). The closing of the sale transaction contemplated by the Agreement occurred simultaneously with the execution of the Agreement. 400 California Street has served as the Bank’s historic main banking branch, and 430 California Street has been the Bank’s principal administrative office in California. The main banking branch is expected to relocate to the Bank’s property at 350 California Street, San Francisco and the administrative functions conducted at 430 California Street are expected to be relocated to other locations over the next several years.
The aggregate sales price of the properties was approximately $135 million. The Agreement contains certain representations, warranties and limited indemnification provisions customary for this type of transaction.
Contemporaneously with the Agreement, the Bank and the Purchaser entered into a lease for the office building (430 California Street) and a retail lease for the historic branch building (400 California Street), with two- and four-year terms, respectively.
